Grand Falls
There really isn't much adventure in getting to the Grand Falls, because you could drive within 100 feet of it. Depending on when you go (season, day of the week, weather) will determine how easy it will be to park. But there is always some available every time i have gone.
The best times to go see this depend on what you want to do there.
For photography: I try to go on overcast days because...

As soon as I was leaving I wanted to turn around and re-do my stay.The Light Center'...

Once there, you can walk through the 20-30 foot tall rock structure and begin ...

The owner of the mill is very friendly and he said that they still grind some of his crops, and that they hold events to watch the process of how they do it. To see when they are holding these events you could call this number: (417) 476-5809.
